2011 macbook pro logic board replacement

For example.ĭo any of you guys know of places / individuals that might be able to revive it more affordably?Īre there any unique mods or more reliable GPUs / Logic boards out there that could be used to help prevent the same issue from happening again? I feel like Apple’s components can’t be readily swapped like a lot of PC parts can, but maybe. That price range just seems stupid expensive to spend on an 8-year old laptop - but if that’s seriously the going rate, I’m wondering if I might have other options.

And Local shops wanna charge around $500-$700 to put a used 2011 logic board in it for me. The hard truth about these GPU failures is that they supposedly require a full logic board replacement. It’s still a machine that I can put to good use, despite the having a newer MBP as my “daily driver.” However I’m just not ready to give up on it.

This is the third time for this machine - only now it’s obviously out of Apple Care and Apple won’t even work on it because they consider it “vintage.” My beloved, 17-inch, early-2011 MacBook Pro (MacBookPro8,3) has crapped out once again due to a faulty GPU.
